Rosie is fairly certain that there’s nothing wrong with putting a love spell on a foreign prince. At least she hopes there's not, because such a drastic measure is necessary in order for her to ensure that the perfect fairy tale romance she’s dreamt about her entire life includes her own prince charming. As the heroine in her story, she won’t be deterred by well-meaning friends, royal betrothals, hungry dragons, or the intriguing guard who stands in her way.
Luckily, Rosie has access to an enchanted bakery and a recipe book of spells, one of which will ensure she’ll win the royal heart she desires. Unfortunately, no story is complete without a few obstacles, and Rosie’s comes in the form of a most formidable foe—a stoic guard whom Rosie may or may not be developing feelings for, one who is committed to thwarting her at every turn. But nothing will stand in the way of Rosie’s happily ever after. After all, what harm can a simple love spell do?
Wow. Rosie. I think I'm just going to say that I struggled with Rosie, she wasn't my favorite character, and leave it at that. I did love the continuation of characters in this book from the first. It gave me a sense of family and community.
The whole tone and voice of this book is young. It reads as more of a middle grade than young adult. Maybe that contributed to how I felt about Rosie? She felt very immature.
I enjoyed the first book in this series, Pathways, although I did mention in my review of that book that it also felt "younger". While I didn't enjoy this book as much, I still have hope for the next book and know who I hope the main character will be!
The cover for this book is pretty!
